EMS Airflow
Non-Invasive and Gentle Teeth Cleaning for Smiles in Essendon
Introducing EMS AIRFLOW, cutting-edge dental hygiene technology from Switzerland! This advanced innovation provides fast, gentle, and efficient teeth cleaning. Combined with Guided Biofilm Therapy, it transforms dental care by offering a precise and comfortable experience for maintaining oral health.
What is EMS AIRFLOW?
EMS AIRFLOW technology is a cutting-edge innovation that utilises guided biofilm therapy for efficient and comfortable dental cleaning. It works by directing a controlled stream of air, warm water, and fine, sweet powder to gently and effectively clean teeth.
The EMS AIRFLOW Prophylaxis Master is specifically designed to support the three core treatments of Guided Biofilm Therapy, offering top-tier precision, performance, safety, and comfort.
The most significant advantage of this state-of-the-art EMS AIRFLOW Prophylaxis Master technology is that the high-pressure water/air stream can clean your teeth efficiently and can also effectively clean hard-to-reach areas to dislodge and remove food particles, stains, plaque and discolouration.
Unlike the traditional methods, this innovative and non-contact formula removes stains and cleans teeth without mess, cold water, scraping, or uncomfortable noises. In conventional methods, the ultrasonic scalers use cold water on your teeth. This cold water and vibrating sensations are a must for removing the tartar build-up on your teeth. This new technology, EMS AIRFLOW Prophylaxis Master, changes how your teeth are cleaned and eliminates the discomfort from teeth cleaning. With this technology, water can be warmed to 40 degrees Celsius, reducing sensitivity. Besides being messy and time-consuming, the conventional methods can leave you with a bad taste in the mouth, which is not the case with EMS AIRFLOW. It is a very comfortable process where our dentist gently exfoliates your teeth with the help of AIRFLOW Prophylaxis Master.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I need EMS Airflow GBT?
We recommend EMS Airflow GBT for patients who visit our clinic regularly for plaque removal. This advanced treatment is now part of our teeth cleaning programs, offered at no additional cost.
What is biofilm?
Biofilm is essentially dental plaque, a buildup of microorganisms that form on the surface of your teeth and gums. You can control plaque at home by maintaining regular brushing and flossing habits, reducing sugary foods and drinks, and avoiding smoking.
What are the eight steps of EMS Airflow GBT?
Teeth Evaluation and Infection Control – Our experienced dentists thoroughly examine your teeth, gums, and any implants. They check for signs of gum inflammation, cavities, and gum disease, then use a mouthwash to cleanse your mouth of microbes.
Disclose – A special dye solution is applied to your teeth and gums, turning deep indigo when it comes into contact with plaque, making plaque deposits easy to identify.
Inform – The dentist explains and shows you the plaque locations, providing a clear understanding of where the buildup is present.
Airflow – Using the EMS Airflow tool, stains and plaque are gently removed from teeth, gums, crowns, implants, and bridges in a single, minimally invasive procedure. It feels like a dental spa experience!
Perio Flow – If plaque is deeply seated, Perio Flow may be used for more thorough cleaning around teeth, gums, or implants.
Piezon – For a deep yet gentle clean, our dentist may use the Piezon attachment for patients seeking minimal pain during their cleaning.
Check and Control – After the procedure, the dentist rechecks your teeth and gums, applying a protective fluoride layer to ensure they remain plaque-free and healthy.
Follow-Up – Our team will follow up with you to ensure you regularly maintain clean teeth through the EMS Airflow GBT program.
What sets the EMS Airflow GBT program apart from traditional teeth cleaning methods?
Here’s how the EMS GBT program differs from traditional teeth cleaning methods:
- EMS Airflow GBT cleans teeth in almost half the time, or less, compared to traditional techniques.
- Unlike traditional methods that use dental scrapers which may impact enamel, EMS Airflow GBT uses air pressure, making it gentler on enamel.
- EMS Airflow GBT offers a quiet, noise-free experience, helping reduce dental anxiety compared to the noise of manual scrapers.
- It provides a deeper clean, reaching areas often missed by traditional manual cleaning techniques.
